Need a means to permanently disable flexible licenses ASAP

We don't need flexible licenses and want be able to permanently disable these so we can't generate any overusage. We need this ASAP.

Now you can force your users to willingly accept a payment for overusage by disabling offline usage. But at the same time you keep your users from working when a login outage like on Friday 2023-03-31 occurs. But if you allow offline usage you allow overusage within your organization without the users being prompted.

Imho this is a modern form of waylaying and it shouldn't be a problem to change the licensing service to limit the users to using those licenses they paid for!

    Absolutely agree. The "flexible license" option works as an invoice trap and adds no value to us as users. We subscribe to a large number of specialised analysis software products, we do not have issues like this with any other vendors.

    Completely agree! Program use should be limited to contracted licenses available. I added an idea titled:
